400 cycles? So, a year? One year.
Had mine since late '22. I'm at 1k cycles, so yeah. about a year. Maybe a little less, because I dont charge my phone overnight, and I only charge it to 80%.
My math was assuming that most users do charge every night, and again during the day 2-3 times a month. 365 + (12x3) = 401. So it seems like we have both ends of standard usage. They've basically just said that this battery will only last one year of standard usage before they intentionally hobble it.
If that's for safety reasons, they need to stop putting unsafe hardware into their handsets.
How do you know how many cycles it has? Is there a way to see that, or are you just counting days?
I have a Pixel 6, don't charge it overnight. Batteries fine, yet.

I'm using Calyx but I assume that its also the same on Graphene, lineage, AOSP, /e/ so on and so fourth.
edit: I dont know why I got downvoted, I'm sorry you dont have this menu also ???
I have the menu in GrapheneOS's settings on a Pixel 7 Pro.
My cycle count is 590, but I'd like to know if that number includes the previous owner's usage on the stock OS from before I installed GrapheneOS right after I bought it second-hand. Got a clue?
From my experience its a per-battery value. When I had a battery replaced on a family members device it went from 400 something down to 5. So I believe its including previous owner.
Ok. I'm still on Android (15) and I don't t find this Information anywhere.
I did not downvote you. People sometimes downvote when they think your comment is factually wrong. Don't take it personally.
Battery information doesn't exist for me :(
